The Savior’s Sheep

Jesus Christ the Good Shepherd

Jesus Christ is called the Good Shepherd. We are like His sheep. He watches over us and guides us. In the New Testament, Jesus taught that He had “other sheep” who lived in another part of the world (John 10:16). After He was resurrected, He visited some of those other people in the Americas. He blessed them. He healed them and taught them. He loved them just like He loved the people in Jerusalem. Jesus has other sheep all over the world. He loves all of Heavenly Father’s children no matter where they live. He loves you!

Draw or make something that reminds you of where you’re from. No matter where you live, you are one of Jesus Christ’s sheep in His fold.
